What affects the price in Stanswood

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Stanswood, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

About our bath re-enamelling in Stanswood

The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. Common call-outs are for a coloured bath you want in white and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, in pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Cast iron baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths

Common problems we fix in Stanswood

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if they find more damage

Our hiring checklist

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Questions from Stanswood

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Will the new finish last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
